But that's the thing about us fallible humans... we do make "interesting" decisions. (Like what my first wife called "poor choices"; what my second wife described in terms we can't use here; what my next wife will call her wedding day. But I digress.) At least the Rock Hall isn't like the Recording Industry Association of America and the team of semi-trained goats they have picking the Grammy nominees and winners.
As usual, I'll do the heavy lifting for you. Last year I came reasonably close in my prognostications. Let's have another go at this, shall we?
Be sure to go to the Hall of Fame website and place your vote. Oh, and if you want to see someone who nerds music up even worse than I do, check out this masterful list of historic RnRHoF snubs. What a geek.
My personal picks would be The Cure, Devo, John Prine, LL Cool J, and The Zombies, but they don't ask me. Neither did you, I suppose.
And here's your handy-dandy playlist from the nominees. Enjoy.

If Boone lets fat CC start the 4th, I’m gonna track him down and punch him in the cock and balls.
fuck this game
my youngest daughter is on her school's competitive cheer team. this weekend, the team mom, an exuberant, spirited woman with a big personality and a kind heart for all the kids on the team, passed away after having had a stroke the week prior. tonight, the kids competed in the first round of the district finals. tons of kids from the school showed up to support the family, so there was a huge, raucous crowd when they took the mat. all the other schools knew what had happened, and they were loud in support, as well. half the girls on the team competed with tears in their eyes, and some, including my daughter, broke down immediately at the end of their performance. which was like something out of a movie - they were loud, and proud, and emotional, and really excellent. there were feels all around, and a shitload of dust in the building. the team finished second, which was a bit of an upset, given results early in the year.
Currently pacing furiously in an Oklahoma City hotel room totally normal not nervous
you just cut and pasted a tweet into a comment. or vice versa. you fancy, all cross-platform and such.
sports are fun.
Finkle is Einhorn. Einhorn is Finkle.
Prolly could have turned that comment into a post, Rob. Just sayin.
Hi Gheorghies.
A very happy birthday to Mark. Stay safe in this weather.
This is on my bucket list, very likely the first one I'll check off as it's eminently attainable as this auction illustrates. Any FOGTB in CA need to bid soon (although I think this is well below the reserve).

I'll take Prine, MC5, Rage, Todd, & Zombies please. I'd put the O/U on how many I get right at 0.5.
I can't imagine how fast I'd get a ticket in that car. In the past 10.69 months, I've gotten two in a car with a 1.5L engine, plus one in a 2006 minivan.
For a guy who walked the Appalachian trail, you certainly seem to be in something of a hurry these days
Also, I have always wanted to drive a Corvette
The C4’s your huckleberry. Prices are low.
i don't really see you as a vette man, whit. more of a bentley type. all classy and such.
Everyone is a Vette man to some degree. Some more than others, sure, but we all have a louche rake inside us yearning to get out and drive a fiberglass car with a V8.
I remember seeing an older kid in like circa 1979 with a t-shirt that said “Up Your Ass with Fiberglass” with a picture of a Vette and I remember thinking it was about the coolest thing ever.
And I would drive the hell out of a Bentley. I’d cruise around in it like Morris Buttermaker and his igloo full of road sodas and make friends nightly. Let’s put this plan into action.
My dad told of a story once of going to a Corvette dealership. A salesman approached and my Iranian dad asked what kind of mileage the new models got. The salesman told my dad the car wasn’t for him and walked away. Dick move, but the correct move.
And that “Up Your Ass...” shirt sound almost as cool as the legendary “Haulin’ Ass” poster from the early 80’s that millions of red-blooded young males ogled in the back of Spencer’s Gifts stores.

Fuel economy is not a typical concern for corvette buyers.
